Oh, Megan Morant, don't you just love it when things live up to the hype? I do.

Welcome to the Raw Recap. Sam Roberts, Megan Morant here coming immediately off of Monday Night Raw. And more specifically, the main event that was advertised for a couple weeks, but but you could smell it coming for I don't know, a month, month and a half. But going back to when they they announced this tournament, back to when Rey Mysterio pulled Roman Reigns aside and he said uh he said uh Hefe. He said tribal chief. He said, Let me ask you, let me let me let me talk to you about business. Let me let me bend your ear a little bit. That's the night Roman Reigns found out he was general manager of Triple A.
He called him Hafe?
Uh rated it was implied, I believe. I it was a paraphrase.
You weren't there, but you know.
No, I wasn't there, but it was a it was a paraphrase. That was the spirit of the conversation anyway. And we find out there's going to be this luchador tournament involving stars from Raw and SmackDown and Triple A. And we watch the the the semifinals and the and the quarterfinals and the final all going out across Monday Night Raw, SmackDown, and Triple A.
And it was an incredible tournament.
Unbelievable tournament. LaParca, Psycho Clown, everybody was there. And it boils down to Penta and his brother Ray Phoenix. And Penta wins, and the announcement is made that with that tournament victory, Penta headlines, Monday night raw in Mexico City, wrestling Roman Reigns in the main event for the world heavyweight championship. Championship. I mean, we talk about the differences and we will spend some time tonight talking about uh what's going on on SmackDown with the WWE championship. With the But there are big differences with that championship and the way CM Punk uh carried himself as a champion versus the World Heavyweight Championship and the way Roman Reigns carries himself as a champion.
Mm-hmm.
Roman Reigns feels That just being in a match with Roman Reigns is a prize into and of itself. And therefore, he asked that question of challengers: what have you done to even be in this conversation? What have you done to deserve getting the time of day from me?
That was the first thing he asked Seth Rollins when Seth Rollins stepped up to him.
It was also the first thing he asked LA Knight when LA Knight stepped up to her. But it's not what he said to Penta just last week going in. No
He
said Penta and Ray, whoever won that match.
He talked about how that's what we should be focused on. We should be talking about guys like Ray Phoenix. We should be talking about guys like Penta who have earned the right.
Do you think? Just stepping into the ring with Roman Reigns in this context elevated Penta.
Of course.
Yeah.
Of course it elevated Penta. I mean, we sat here in the studio speculating wildly
as we do.
After Penta advanced in the tournament to punch his ticket to the main event of Mexico City Monday night raw. And we talked about will he hit a Mexican destroyer on Roman Reigns? I mean, even if he didn't, just that entrance alone in being in the spot, the main event of Raw against Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship. Yes, Penta's stock is elevated, but the performance we saw tonight on a totally different level.
And I think, you know, and I've said this for a long time. I think that while you will have certain cities react to superstars in certain ways, this is a global platform. And just because something happens in a city, once you see it, once you hear the reaction, it becomes contagious wherever you are. When when the clip of of Stephanie Vacare winning the women's world championship. from Liv Morgan in Santiago, Chile, went out there. Everybody. heard how they reacted to Stephanie Vacare in her hometown and it and and it and it drove the enthusiasm for Stephanie.
